Following on from the success of our Northern Gramps Girls Can campaign last year where council lit up exercise spaces in the early mornings, several of the shire’s sporting facilities are due to light up again in 2026. Between May 4 and September 30, spaces in Stawell and St Arnaud will light up from 6pm to 7.30pm on Monday and Wednesday evenings, and from 6am and 7am on Wednesday mornings.

Run the Gap is the annual fun run held in Halls Gap, the heart of the Grampians (Gariwerd). In its 13th year, participants can compete in a scenic 6km run / walk along Fyans Creek, a 12km run including a lap across the wall at stunning Lake Bellfield; or challenge themselves in the 21km trail run. This popular event is run by local volunteers contributing back to community and tourism efforts. Run the Gap proceeds go to community projects to extend and enhance bike and walking paths, with the Run the Gap committee advocating for a new shared path from Grampians Road corner to the Halls Gap Zoo. Plus $1 from each registration annually is donated to the Grampians Walking Track Support Group. To help maintain walking tracks within Grampians National Park. Last year fundraising efforts provided $20,000 to the Pomonal Community Fire Recovery Resource Group. Entry prices and inclusions can be found at the website.
